candyman93 Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 If I were GM, I’m 100% getting rid of Keenum and OBJ. That’s 22 mil right there. That would put us at a projected 46 mil next year, but that’s not including the cap potentially rising. The strength of this franchise is the trenches. So keep the offensive line and defensive line together for as long as possible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#32 Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 No Conklin hate as he was a great acquisition but now he can’t stay healthy and might generate a 2-3 pick. I agree with Keenum as we have Mullins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re not going to spend 9 million in dead cash (to save 6 million) so we can get a day 2 pick and still need to figure out how to replace our All Pro tackle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, Mullen it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they use some of that to re-sign Njoku (a team friendly deal I think tbh), Ward, and either Wyatt or Clowney depending upon the rest of 2021. I'm still BETTING on them letting Teller go to get a high comp pick and then plugging him with someone who is a replacement level starter at that spot that's "not as important", given we have Chubb and Hunt coming back, along with our other 4 OL.

candyman93 Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 (edited) If Clowney gets us 9-10 sacks, how much are you paying him? Let’s assume we’re getting rid of OBJ and Keenum, which frees up 22 mil. Other than QB, pass rusher is the 2nd hardest position to fill (maybe behind LT / CB).

It depends what the rest of his game looks like and if he is healthy the rest of the year. 9-10 sacks next to Myles might be 6 without him so don't want to have another Vernon deal where we shrug at the end like, I guess that was alright. Assuming his run defense remains very good and he stays healthy the rest of the year, something like 2/$28 mil, but something tells me we'll get outbid. I don't want to give more than two years with all the injury history, but we'll see. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

candyman93 Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 I’m kinda hoping after watching the Patriots implode our fans stop obsessing over the “Patriot way.” The Patriot way is called having Tom Brady. You’ve got to spend money to win in this league. Unless Clowney suffers a major injury, I can’t justify paying a bunch of “okay” guys over him.

#32 Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 IMHO my list of Ward, Beckham, Gillian, Keenum, and Conklin to be traded if there is value has an addition of Landry. Yes all were very talented but most are injury prone and unavailable as their careers seems to have peaked. Yes Landry has missed half the games this year and is a fan favorite but Steelers game clearly demonstrated dropped passes, stupid penalties, and costly fumble.

Landry is reliable outside of what would Be a fluke game yesterday and Conklin is considered the best RT when healthy. Sucks he is getting beat up but just bad luck. Its not like he is over the hill. He is in his prime at 27yrs old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

candyman93 Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Just now, LETSGOBROWNIES said: Ward? .....I’m becoming impatient with him to say the least. Also, we need to extend Wyatt. He’s been a healthy work horse 2 years in a row. We should be able to afford him after we get rid of certain people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
